Out tonight to keep my daily streak going. Bunadoorian and I thought we would try for a few along this walkway. Bunadoorian found this one fairly easy. TFTC gc8
Found @08:40am while walking the dog along this lovely trail. Left pencil pack, took foreign currency. TFTC!
Another one that took a few minutes to find. Found safely in the end. Thanks for the cache
Enjoyed a walk here from the main rd end of the trail - great views over the valley, but well shaded. Found soon enough. Thanks gc8
Originally overshot the location of this one, as we assumed that rocks would mean the big boulders at the benches/seating area, and felt silly retracing our steps! Great hide and a fun swap.
Decided I needed a walk today. Beautiful afternoon and I’ve not long moved to Eltham from Bendigo, so of course I had to grab some caches. This was my first along trail. Nice walk and some lovely homes on the north side of the trail. TFTC.
Dad and 14yo has quick success here. But dad has stepped in dog poo and so the rest of our evenings walk will probably be “fragrant” to say the least.
Yes, plenty of rocks here but where is the cache , I wonder ! After a bit more searching , hooray found it . thanks for the adventure gc8 .
This cache was hidden well and it rocked. The radio was going at a nearby residence and the birds were singing sweetly in trees. I couldn't here the flowing streams of the aqueduct though, no water in it.
Found by the Swedish Tennis Players. Nice easy find, with a guardian spider! TFTC
This cache was NOT entered into my GPSr when doing the original data entry stuff, maybe me being half blind or over enthusiastic, one or the other, but time heals all ills, and now I am in area to have a look, nearly fell over when I spotted the possible hide, this is NOT a micro, Thanks gc8 for this series, which is giving me lots of exercise, and lots of klms on ute which is soon needing a service, just not done enough Ks to warrant it

Ah, one of those, gc8. Local conditions meant the coordinates were a tad fuzzy, but widening the search finally uncovered the familiar prize.
I needed somewhere to ride the cobwebs out of my head and off the bike, and get some smileys for the final week of our Mary Hyde's adventure, so decided to visit the Aqueduct Trail for the first time in ages. Plenty of people and their canine companions were also enjoying the day and the trail, so I had the fun of the occasional game of leapfrog, and a few waits for uninterrupted retrieval. Just a normal, fun day on the trail, really.

Dropped my son off at a friends house so decided to tackle a few caches nearby. After 2 DNF 's it was good to find one. Now to retrace my steps and try again. TFTC gc8.
On a ride with the geokid, we started to the north of the track at ZigZag road and had fun riding down, then worked our way back. Interesting how many people walk and ride on this track which made some of the finds hard. Nice quick one which was good as a muggle was slowing making there way toward us.

Out on a rare occassion with my non geo hubby grabbing a few caches while in the area. With 1 flat tyre on one bike, we rode and walked this great trail. A quick find at the obvious.
Thanks gc8 for placing the cache for us to find.

OzHockeyChick spotted this one right away as we approached, so a nice easy one, thank you
Didn't even need the hint for this one. Geokid2 currently screaming because Geokid1 made the find. Fun Australia Day outing with the family :-p
A scheduling error on my behalf meant I had babysitting organised but no longer anything to do, so with a day free to myself I decided to pick a random spot on the geocaching map where I haven't cached before. I spotted the walk along the aqueduct that looked interesting so headed out in this direction to sample some of the hides. It was a good choice because the quality of all the hides I found was very high and the trail was a very interesting walk with some great views along the way.
I spotted this one much more quickly and was soon on my way along the trail. Thanks for the cache gc8.

Great Cache name . Easy find but would not have known it was there . Good hide . Well done. Thanks
Another super quick find by geo-kid, who is absolutely loving this trail. Took a marble and a cherry, left a pin and a flower. TFTC!
Sam, Jasper and Grandma Lynne found it.....Sam found it, actually!! Good cache, with good clues...thank you!!
Found with M4 and (._0) whilst out a cache ride along the Aqueduct trail. The attached geokids are doing great work here and once again came up with the goods here...TFTC...
Well, i am now logging caches on the side of the road. My geobuddies have taken my kids to do Keeta - Smell while I wait for RACV. We, including Mark&Kelly and Vanessa&Aodh, had a late start from original pre-arranged time to do the this Aqueduct Series, as one had a flat battery and another needed a bike part. Now however, it looks like i might have a flat or collapsed battery. We had originally planned to park at either end to only do 4km with the 4 kids but now are doing 8km doing every second one each way to complete series. Kids were glad to be done with cycling Kids were grateful to find this cache at said location. Still waiting for RACV - another hour to go. Kelly and Vanessa are getting Fish & Chips after Smell cache. Then we decide what is happening to my 2 kids and the car TFTC
Our second last cache, and the lure of dinner was calling. The kids found this one proudly again. This trail has been great for their adventure skills and getting them all looking for caches. Thanks gc8.
13/03/2016 12:32 Stopped off to play some Ingress again on the Aqueduct Trail so decided on the spur of the moment to go for a short walk. As it happens I was heading back towards the caches I picked up last weekend and thus completing more of the same series. Got to GZ where it was an easy find as it was exposed and thus visible from the path. I sat down next to the cache and grabbed it and was just signing the log when a few muggles jogged/walked and biked past. I replaced it when all was quiet and made sure it was less visible than before. TFTC gc8 TNLN SL
Easier one of the three so far!
TFTC! Found with Amanda panda, on a two wheeled mission
